I have served as Vice President, Special Counsel with the New York office of the National Commercial Services division of First American Title Insurance Company since 2001. With extensive experience in finance/commercial real estate and leasing, I aim to serve as a valuable resource for our wide-ranging institutional, corporate and high net worth client base. 

I am a frequent contributor to Lexis/Nexis websites and publications, the New York State Bar Association’s Real Property Law Journal, and The Practical Real Estate Lawyer, as well as a prolific CLE lecturer and presenter for First American Title. 

I graduated from New York University and hold a JD cum laude from Brooklyn Law School. I'm a member of the Bar Associations of New York and Connecticut, and a Second Vice Chair of the New York State Bar Association. I also serve as faculty for the Practicing Law Institute, Real Property Law Section; and am a former Co-Chairman of the Legislative Committee; and Co-Chairman of the Commercial Leasing Committee’s “Silent Lease Issues” Subcommittee.
